I’m not good at keeping quiet…keeping secrets…heck, waiting for anything at all.
And, yet…here I am.
Keeping quiet.
Waiting.
And, it will probably be a month or longer until I know ANYTHING that I can share.
I’m
going
crazy.
I’ve been collecting photos, but not sharing! No time!! But I have a bit of a reprieve so I’d better take the time to update you all!
First, have you been to J2’s blog? We’ve been having fun with it! He loves to set up the exact shot he wants me to take – and then give final approval! LOL
Speaking of school – I can’t believe I didn’t post these! Here is our obligatory “First day of School – 2007” J1 is in 6th grade, J2 is 4th, and J3 is 1st!
After the other boys left with Daddy, J2 and I headed off for our traditional First Day Breakfast!
Finally, some other big news in our house – J3 lost his first tooth!!
I love Grandma O’s reaction! LOL
Yeah! It’s out!
Still a very cute smile!!
Hey you PWs!! Thank you for stopping by and letting me know you are out there!! I miss you all!! I remember you, your families, and your ministries in my prayers!!

So, here’s an update in the photography department!
First, here is my September Socks…starting to turn the heel! I work two at a time…but I’m a chicken…when I start the heel flaps I move to two needles and work them independently…only moving both back to one needle when the heels are completely done!
The Dropped Stitch Scarf for my Secret Sister:
Update on my Boxers – yes, it’s just a blob of yarn….structure comes later!
Beginnings of some secret Christmas knitting:

Will you all read a post without pictures? It’s just TOO hot and my head is hurting too much to go outside and take pictures right now. If I remember I’ll take a few tomorrow morning before church while it’s cool.
Instant Gratification….
Tuesday night at Knit Night one of the gals brought in 3 bags of yarn! Ribbons and novelty yarn – but also some nice wool. I took a bit of wool for gloves or hats but also some Berroco Quest Color yarn. I knit up a quick Dropped Stitch scarf for my secret pal at church. I hope she’ll enjoy it. I love those super quick projects…don’t you?!?
I cast on and finished the initial ribbing for some socks for J2. I think I’m going to do the Baby cable rib pattern out of Charlene Schurch’s Sensational Knitted Socks. I’m using some Regia Cotton Plus that I got from Ruth awhile back. J2 is pretty sensitive about textures, so I hope he’ll like it.
Also on the needles…
- Boxers – I’m about 95% done with the first side. I’m also about 1/2 through the red yarn..hope I make it!!
- Beth’s Fetching…I’m about 1/3 done with the 2nd one. Once I finish it her birthday present is done!
- I want to make about 20 miniature Christmas stocking ornaments for Christmas – but I’m having trouble getting started.
- Big Shrug. Almost time to take it out of storage and finish it!

…they are gone! Let’s all have a moment of silence for Daiquiri Ice from Baskin Robbins. I’ve been enjoying this treat since my days behind their counter in high school (early 80s) and when I found out it was only 2 pts in weight watchers I loved it even more. But today….oh what a sad day….I found out it has passed away and I wasn’t even aware!
I tried the new Lime Daiquiri Ice…and all I can say is Blech! Oh, what a sad day!
